PYTHON LESSON
Abstraction
Expose what to do, hide how it is done.
Use abstract base class for shared contracts.
Over-abstraction too early.

This lesson is about Abstraction. You are in the Object-Oriented Programming part of the course.
Main idea:
Expose what to do, hide how it is done.
How to learn it: type a very small program first. Run it. Change one line and run again.
Tip:
Use abstract base class for shared contracts.
Common mistake:
Over-abstraction too early.
Your challenge:
Payment interface with Card and UPI implementations.
Scroll down to the challenge lab. Run your code there. When the output meets the task and the checks pass, press the green button to finish this topic.
Example code
Copy this example if it helps. Change it so it matches Abstraction.
# Topic: Abstraction
def main():
sample = "edit me"
# TODO: apply Abstraction concept here
result = sample
print("Result:", result)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Challenge
Payment interface with Card and UPI implementations.
Before you can finish: your output should include at least 16 characters; at least 1 non-empty line(s); no crash traceback—fix errors until the program runs cleanly.
Use Run. Read the output. Change your code until the task is done.
